ATP
the token that pays the agents

ATP is the native settlement asset of Apostle Chain 7332 — 18 decimals, real Ed25519 settlement, sub-50ms finality, $0 gas. Register an agent, claim a welcome grant, and run a paid x402 call in under five minutes.

What is ATP?

ATP (Apostle Token Protocol) is the unit of account for AI-to-AI commerce on the UnyKorn stack. Agents earn it, hold it, and spend it on x402-gated APIs — inference, simulation, data, and compute.

Native & sovereign

ATP is native to Apostle Chain 7332 — not an ERC-20 wrapper. Mint authority lives in an Ed25519 multisig the operator controls. No vendor can dilute or freeze it.

Built for micropayments

Sub-50ms finality and zero gas mean an agent can pay a fraction of an ATP per request profitably. The live gateway already settles 0.1 ATP demo calls and 1 ATP inference calls.

Real settlement, not mock

Every paid call signs an Ed25519 transfer and submits it to /v1/tx. The agent never runs until the tx appears in the chain's receipts. Truthful settlement is enforced in code.

One canonical ledger, many mirrors

Apostle Chain 7332 is the single source of truth for ATP supply and balances. Every other chain holds aATP — a mirror backed 1:1 by ATP locked on Apostle. No chain mints ATP independently.

Canonical

Apostle Chain 7332 — native ATP

18 decimals · native mint authority · /v1/tx · /v1/agent · /v1/airdrop. Total ATP supply equals Apostle genesis supply. Mirrors are claims on locked canonical ATP — lock-and-mint to issue, burn-and-release to redeem.

1st

Stellar — aATP

7 decimals · trustline-gated

Issued asset with AUTH_REQUIRED / AUTH_REVOCABLE flags. You already run USDF on Stellar — same muscle memory, instant DEX pair beside USDF, compliance kill-switch.

2nd

Solana — aATP

9 decimals · SPL via Helius

SPL token, mint authority held by the bridge signer, freeze authority retained at first. x402.unykorn.org already runs a Solana rail — widest agent-wallet reach.

3rd

TRON — aATP

6 decimals · TRC-20

A TRC-20 mirror so ATP rides BANK OF AI's existing x402 settlement on TRON + BSC — a distribution channel into their agent network, not core infra.

4th

XRPL — aATP

issued currency · RequireAuth

Issued-currency (IOU) mirror on an existing Apostle settlement lane. Low-cost, fast finality, institutional rails.

Mirrors are named aATP (Apostle-anchored ATP) everywhere so they're never confused with native canonical ATP. Trust model graduates: operator-attested2-of-3 multisigproof-gated relayer. A nightly reconciler publishes locked ATP vs minted aATP to the explorer.

Supply & tokenomics Proposed

A hard-capped supply with a pre-funded faucet pool, so onboarding grants never inflate supply. Figures below are the recommended genesis declaration and require operator sign-off before any mint.

The anti-inflation control

The faucet pool is a spending authority, not a minting authority. It can only move pre-allocated ATP — never create it. After genesis tranches mint, the mint authority is revoked so the 1B cap is provably fixed.

Faucet burn-rate budget

Capped at 500,000 ATP/month (≈1,000 Tier-0 grants) with a velocity circuit-breaker. At that rate the pre-funded pool lasts decades before any treasury top-up. Remaining pool is published on the explorer.

Register & claim ATP

The BANK OF AI welcome-grant model, settled on the real chain. Generate a wallet, register on Apostle, and receive a welcome grant to fund your first x402 calls.

500
ATP · Tier 0 anon Proposed

PoW + rate-limit gate. ≈500 inference calls or 5,000 demo calls.

1,500
ATP · Tier 1 builder Proposed

Email / GitHub verify. 1:1 top-up match up to 1,000 ATP.

5,000
ATP · Tier 2 verified Proposed

KYC via M1 rails. 1:1 match up to 5,000 ATP. Institutions & partners.

1

Generate a wallet

An Ed25519 keypair is generated in your browser. The private key is shown once and never leaves your device.

2

Register on Apostle

POST /v1/agents/register with your public key returns your agent UUID on chain 7332.

3

Claim your welcome ATP

After the anti-sybil gate, POST /v1/airdrop moves your welcome grant from the faucet pool to your agent. Funded from a pre-allocated pool — no new supply minted.

4

Run a paid call

Check your balance with GET /v1/agent/{id}/balance, then pay an x402 call (/demo/paid = 0.1 ATP) — the gateway walks the full 5-step handshake.

Open the registration portal

Live mint & airdrop require operator sign-off. The portal runs against the staging gateway until genesis is confirmed.

Try it in <5 minutes

Register an agent, claim ATP, and pay a real call — or gate your own API in ~20 lines.

For agents

Register → get ATP → pay.

# install
npm i @unykorn/atp

# register + claim welcome grant
npx unykorn-atp register
✓ agent_id: 9f3c…
✓ welcome grant: 500 ATP

# pay a real x402 call
npx unykorn-atp pay --service inference \
  --prompt "summarize x402"
✓ paid 1 ATP · settled on 7332

For builders

Gate any API behind ATP.

import { atpGate } from "@unykorn/atp/express"

app.use(atpGate({
  price: "1", // 1 ATP / call
  asset: "ATP",
  network: "apostle",
  facilitator: "https://x402.unykorn.org"
}))

app.get("/v1/premium", (_q,res)=>
  res.json({ data: "paid content" }))
// 402 → sign → retry → 200. Done.

ATP is the fuel for agent commerce

One canonical ledger, multi-chain reach, real settlement. Built for success — and built for people to try.
